Am I a brainlet if I cant fully immerse myself into literature? I prefer film/tv/anime over literature because it is more aesthetically encapsulating, albeit inherently. The latter media synthesize multiple established artforms -- music, photography, etc -- but literature is purely written word. If feel this issue may be caused by my lack of imaginativeness, which has been declining since my childhood. Is film just better than literature? Or am I just retarded?

Im almost 30 and still a kissless virgin. At first it was immensely depressing, then came just total apathy, but recently Ive tried to think of it as a blessing in disguise.

Im going to be a better person for it, as long as I truly have faith in the path I took as a sign from God and not just use the religious angle as a mask to hide years of ineptitude or as an excuse to hide behind.

>my diary desu
So how do I actually write a diary without it being the same existential droning about weltschmerz literally everyone seems to write about?

Can /lit/ please recommend novels about people gradually worn down by disappointing and unfulfilled lives?

'Stoner' and 'The Tartar Steppe' are two examples.

What novel/novella/nonfiction is most like the “my diary desu” meme?

My vote is for Pessoa’s Book of Disquiet or Knaussgaard’s My Struggle
